The Man In The Tree Lyrics

Max Moose Band The Man In The Tree

[Verse 1]
'Round when I was very small
The man in the tree
Took me on his spaceship
To another galaxy.
I cried that I'd miss my home,
I'd miss my family,
"You'll never lose a second,"
He thought telepathically.

[Verse 2]
I grew up on his planet
And I lived a life of ease,
Along with comely females,
Reproducing when I pleased,
Until one day by chance
My benefactors heard me sneeze,
They though "Sorry, but we cannot risk
The spread of earth disease. "

[Bridge]
I never told anyone
Of the things that I have done,
But in my heart, in my soul,
I know I've been through a black hole.

[Verse 3]
My son is only 4 years old,
He asked me recently:
"Daddy, could you tell me about relativity?"
I laughed and said: "Where did you hear that?
Was it on T. V.? " He said:
"Ain't you ever spoken with the man up in the tree?"
